Excessive force. PERIOD!

They called them โ€œviolent mobs,โ€ but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor.

#SuSSanLey stuck by comments she made in Parliament re PMโ€™s #JoyDivision T-shirt. BL raises chin in defiance feels superior. Deputy #TedOBrien thought it amusing even laughable, refusing to say if PM should apologise. BL compressed mouth holds back what he really wants to say.

Sussan Ley, whose modified name happens to contain the same letter combination as Hitlerโ€™s police force, has tried to make the tenuous case that the Prime Minister wearing a Joy Division t-shirt is antisemitic.

Opposition Leader Sussan Ley criticised the AUS PM Anthony Albanese for wearing a Joy Division band t-shirt? Manufactured outrage. She now has less than zero credibility. Well, I am NOT lending her my Dead Kennedys album, that's for sure. #auspol

Sky are actually attempting a culture war over the band name of Joy Division. There is nowhere ever too stupid for these people to go.

They said they didn't have enough left. They shouldn't have assumed an even split in the menu choices.

The role of the United States in the dismissal of the Whitlam Government In 1975, Australia lost more than a Prime Minister โ€” it lost its independence. The CIAโ€™s hidden hand in Whitlamโ€™s dismissal still echoes today.

Yep. I have many friends in the USA. A particular couple are so terrified living in their own home in a VERY nice, white historical town in New Jersey that it's crippling them. And... They get all their information from FOX ๐Ÿ˜ญ

I don't know why I watch it. The cooking is mostly shit. The people are horrible. The sniping is toxic.

This woman is psychotic. I mean FFS, anyone would think that was Linda Reynolds that got raped in her office and not her junior employee.

Mean girls!? Look in the mirror Linda!
